Chapter 2
That very evening, I used my pregnancy
discomfort as an excuse to demand
separate bedrooms from Wyatt.
Wyatt was initially reluctant to agree.
Grace convinced him, saying that letting me, a pregnant woman with physical limitations, rest properly would benefit
aby’s development. Only then did he eluctantly consent.
He said, “Grace is right. If sleeping separately is good for the baby, then we’ll sleep separately. But Rylee, you must take care of your health. If anything seems wrong with the baby, call me immediately.”

When we first met through a mutual colleague’s introduction, I fell for him at first sight. Learning he was a traditional man, I had even promised that if I could marry him, I would focus on our family.
After our marriage, I indeed applied to suspend all my work commitments.
Therefore, even though my former military rank was slightly higher than Wyatt’s, he remained convinced that I was deeply in love with him, even certain that he had me completely under his control.
Over the following period, I pretended to know nothing while quietly watching his undisguised favoritism toward Grace.

Wyatt was somewhat displeased about this, but couldn’t say much.
After all, I was his wife in name.
What husband buys meat that his wife

Perhaps seeing Wyatt and Grace growing too close, many neighbors came to warn
- me.
“Rylee, I know you’re easygoing, but you can’t be indifferent to everything. Wyatt is young and promising–you need to be careful not to let another woman steal him away.”

Wyatt didn’t disappoint me. Right up until the due date, he never noticed anything unusual, only growing anxious about my belly showing no signs of labor.
Grace had been experiencing frequent contractions lately and could give birth at
any moment.
The doctor advised her to stay at the
spital, but fearing complications, she nsisted on returning home, watching my belly obsessively every day.
After two more days, Grace couldn’t wait any longer.
She cried that she was in pain, and Wyatt immediately brought a plate of drugged lobster bisque and knocked on my door.
